the Cocoon users list is a more appropriate forum for such a question: 
http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/mail-lists.html.

It sounds like the parameters must be passed to the sitemap for creating 
the correct pipeline. Therefore you need an action, not an XSP.

example:

<!-- pass XML and XSL as param to the sitemap -->
<map:match pattern="*">
  <map:act type="getXmlAndXSLFromRequest">
    <map:generate src="cocoon:/DB{xmlFromRequest}"/>
    <map:transform src="cocoon:/DB{xslFromRequest}"/>
  </map:act>
  <map:serialize/>
</map:match>

<!-- get XML or XSL from DB - in which way ever -->
<map:match pattern="DB*">
  <map:generate/>
  <map:serialize type="xml"/>
</map:match>

This is only one approach, maybe there are better ones. Ask on Cocoon 
users list, because this question has not much to do with XSLT.

Joerg
